Greenland Winter Package - Amazing Ilulissat Image

Itinerary:

Ilulissat

When visiting Greenland, most people want to see the icebergs, and the destination to see icebergs is without a doubt Ilulissat. Due to the town's location north of the Polar Circle there is also a good chance of seeing Northern Lights in Ilulissat.

Scenic flight

The Arctic winter landscape opens up beneath you just before the flight lands in Ilulissat, and even before you have set foot in the small Greenlandic town, you will understand why Ilulissat Ice Fjord is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Excursions

Travelling by dog sledge with your Inuit hunter to isolated villages or to the fishing grounds on the frozen fjords is a journey into the world of the old polar explorers.

Iceberg cruises on the Ilulissat Fjord provide the perfect opportunity to get close to these gigantic sculptures created by nature.

Day 1
:
Arrival in Greenland, Ilulissat City Walk & Welcome Dinner

Air Iceland flight from Reykjavík domestic airport to Ilulissat in West Greenland, about 3 hours. Meet and greet and transfer to the hotel for information meeting and guided city walk. You have some time to explore the town, visit the local museum and observe Greenlandic life at the always busy harbour. After a welcome dinner, you should step into the darkness and check if the Northern Lights are visible. These spectacular sky-light shows are also known as the Aurora Borealis and are frequently seen in Greenland from September through April on clear and crisp nights. White and green are usually the dominant colors of Northern Lights but sometimes there are considerable color variations. They are ephemeral, however, sightings are not guaranteed. Overnight in Ilulissat (B, D)

Dear Bobby,
My wife and I have returned from our Iceland vacation and we wanted to thank you for all of your hard work in putting the trip together. Iceland is a truly beautiful country and I'm happy with how we spent our time there. Seeing Gullfoss waterfall in Iceland, Eqi glacier in Greenland, and listening to old stories about the people of Iceland and Greenland were memorable moments for us. Everyone was friendly, our hotels were great, and we can't stop telling people about how much fun we had! Thanks again. If we plan another trip to Iceland or beyond in the future, I'll be sure to give your company a call.

Our tour of Greenland based in Ilulissat was extraordinary. Sunset cruise, whales watching,Eqi glacier were unforgettable experiences.
The guides were very helpful, friendly and well informed. The tour booking process with Nordic Saga was very smooth, the staff was very informative and quick to respond. I certainly will use them again. Johanna Bloom

Iceland and Greenland - a very good tour
I did a few tours in Iceland but this one was exceptional. My impressions are only positive. The guides were friendly and informative. All other service was efficient. Before this trip Nordic Saga Tours agents were extremely helpful both via email and over the phone and I was very confident in every detail.
During the tour each and every activity was well-organized, interesting, and tremendously enjoyable. Greenland's wildlife was stunning as well as all Arctic life. It was very interesting to learn something about Inuit culture. Great photo opportunities, if you want to bring home a piece of these remarkable countries. I still see gigantic icebergs in my dreams. They made a stunning imprint in my memory as well as the Eqip glacier.
Best regards,
